Direct magnetocaloric measurements of Fe-B-Cr-X (X = La, Ce) amorphous ribbons
(American Institute of Physics, 2011)
A procedure has been developed to directly measure the adiabatic temperature change of amorphous melt-spun Fe-based ribbons displaying attractive room temperature magnetocaloric properties. Polycrystalline Gd ribbons are ...

Electrical conductivity of polycrystalline Mg(OH)2 at 2 GPa: Effect of grain boundary hydration-dehydration
(Springer, 2011)
The effect of intergranular water on the conductivity of polycrystalline brucite, Mg(OH)2, was investigated using impedance spectroscopy at 2 GPa, during consecutive heating-cooling cycles in the 298-980 K range. The grain ...

Dynamic heat flux experiments in Cu67.64Zn 16.71Al15.65: Separating the time scales of fast and ultra-slow kinetic processes in martensitic transformations
(American Institute of Physics, 2011)
Crackling noise and avalanches during the martensite phase transformation of Cu67.64Zn16.71Al15.65 were investigated. Heat flux measurements with extremely slow heating rates of 0.005 Kh -1 allowed sufficient separation ...

Compressive strength degradation in ZrB2-based ultra-high temperature ceramic composites
(Elsevier, 2011)
The high temperature compressive strength behavior of zirconium diboride (ZrB2)-silicon carbide (SiC) particulate composites containing either carbon powder or SCS-9a silicon carbide fibers was evaluated in air. Constant ...

Cellular automata simulations on nanocrystallization processes: From instantaneous growth approximation to limited growth
(Elsevier, 2011-07)
Cellular automata simulations have been performed to simulate the crystallization process under a limited growth approximation. This approximation resembles several characteristics exhibited by nanocrystalline microstructures ...

Magnetocaloric effect and critical exponents of Fe77Co 5.5Ni5.5Zr7B4Cu1: A detailed study
(AIP Publishing, 2011-03-21)
The critical exponents of the alloy have been determined with the Kouvel–Fisher method to predict the field dependence of the magnetic entropy change DSM . The nonlinear fit of DSM ðHÞ to a power law provides a field ...

Influence of La and Ce additions on the magnetocaloric effect of Fe–B–Cr-based amorphous alloys
(American Institute of Physics, 2011)
The magnetic entropy change (ΔSM), temperature of peak ΔSM (Tpk) and refrigerant capacity (RC) in Fe(RE)80B12Cr8 (RE = La, Ce, or Gd) alloys were studied. Increasing La, Ce, and Gd content led to relatively constant, ...

Optimization of the refrigerant capacity in multiphase magnetocaloric materials
(AIP Publishing, 2011-03-09)
The refrigerant capacity (RC) of magnetocaloric materials can be enhanced using multiphase materials or composites, which expand the temperature range over which a significant magnetic entropy change can be obtained. ...

Recent insights into xerogel and aerogel mineral composites for CO 2 mineral sequestration
(Springer Nature, 2011)
Supercritically dried composites have already been analysed and proposed as carbon dioxide sequesters. However, the economical and energetic costs of the supercritical drying process had to be re-evaluated, and were ...

Two Milling Time Regimes in the Evolution of Magnetic Anisotropy of Mechanically Alloyed Soft Magnetic Powders
(Elsevier, 2011)
The milling time evolution of magnetic anisotropy of ball milled powders can be described considering two regimes. First, for short milling times, the main factor affecting the magnetic behavior of the alloy is the ...
